    I stopped watching any of his works since I found out he has a cult…

    Show me one person who is surprised by this and he will show them his dick.

      We’re all not surprised, but he’s still not in court. He’s still not in jail. He’s still allowed to rape girls at his leisure.

          Yes exactly. It’s maddening to see the same sentiment over and over - this isn’t a surprise, it’s the ones you most expect, we’ve heard about this for decades.

          And absolutely nothing has happened to him.

      I feel like this is why we keep seeing him in movies despite the fact he’s box office kryptonite.

      He’s somebody’s favorite sex pest.

        His performance, if you can even stand degrading other actors and actresses by using the term with his name attached to it, in Bladerunner 2049 was a look inside his brain. That was Jared in 2049, not some tech overlord he was pretending to be.

        More importantly, he’s box office poison.

        Which really does lend credibility to the idea that he either has some Epstein-style blackmail on some influential people in Hollywood and/or he’s still providing them with unsavory, or illegal, experiences.

        This is the genuinely such an agonizing flip side to it like if we are gonna employ a sex criminal at least get an actor who isnt total ass and ruins every movie he is in. Dude is allergic to emotion, wooden, and sucks to work with. It makes no sense. There are so many pervs in hollywood I know at least one of them has to be able to act better than this asshole

        I think he’s a repulsive person, but in my opinion he’s been electric in several roles, like Requiem and Panic Room.

        He peaked as Jordan Catalano in My So-Called Life, an intellectually stunted, emotionally empty symbol of naive adolescent desire. For some reason, he was really able to sink into that role.

      You’re confused on why a sexual predator is still working in an industry famously run by sexual predators?

            Well, I’d hazard an alternative: I believe what the settlers did – after the murderers cleared the American population out of their new home – standing up and challenging the leadership, even, if necessary, forming a cohesive army of rebels to violently fight for rights they deemed at the time absolutely vital and worth such a barbaric and last-resort act as killing for, is something I appreciate. The mistake was her people letting the leadership bring the country down quicker than any grieving Middle-Eastern victim turned international activist.

              Ha! That’s rich. Americans are too lazy and self entitled to have an actual revolution. Half would spiral into existential crisis if the lights went out, and the other half would be politicizing why the lights were on in the first place.

              The /mistake/ appears to have been Jefferson/Madison not lining the God-botherers up against a wall and shooting them when they had a chance.

      Like most predators. Everyone knows for decades and hardly anyone does anything about it. The ones who speak up are called sluts, liars, clout-seekers, attention whores, etc.

    This dude and Russel Brand are the biggest “I’m not surprised in the least” that they have accusations against them. Always got creepy vibes from both of them

    I find it interesting the article ends saying there’s 9 accusations back in 2025. I’m curious if these ones are additional accusations or some of those 9

    In a report in Air Mail in June 2025, nine women accused Leto of engaging in inappropriate behavior over the years
